I'm going to try to install a shield/wind deflector over the filter tonight. There isn't a lot of clearance in the engine bay so I think there will be some Dremeling involved.

Don't you have the AMS intake shield?

I do but it was never installed (I have a catch can where that would have mounted). I was also planning to sell that intake once things are sorted.

I bought a shiny one. I'll take a look at some options for affixing it to the intake, perhaps I'll cut it down.

One funny thing is that the car idles perfectly, as if it doesn't have cams. It's really rich at idle due to the honking injectors so maybe that has something to do with it.
